Want to understand what changed in America leading to Trump? Here you go. Start with Concrete Economics & go clockwise.

I'm not concerned about the MOU, which doesn't say much.
I'm concerned that the entire military might of the US couldn't force the regime into submission. If America failed to win the war with Iran, how could it protect Taiwan? How could it protect the gulf Arab states?

I don't want to hear another #MAGAMoron whine like a little bitch about Obama & Iran again. Particularly when Trump himself started that war, costing 13 American lives, & countless injured.
And, for what exactly?
What a fucking joke.

No one really believed Trump ever gave a damn about the Iranian people
It's just that for a brief moment, his interests aligned with theirs
Until they didn't

He betrayed the Iranian people, undermined our national security, wasted billions all to get us back to where we were before.
I wanted him to succeed and he objectively, massively failed.

I have asked for days, why can't we, the people, see the damn MOU? Not through people briefed by an anonymous person. Honestly, I've never seen anything like this. If it is a great outcome for peace, then release it.

I don't care how big of a Trump fan you are.
He sold himself as a strong leader.
Begging Iran for a deal (surrendering, in reality) and telling Israel to just sit back and absorb attacks, and scolding them for defending themselves is pathetic by any definition.

Operation Epic Fury will go down as one of the most pointless military operations in history!
That's not because military action against the IRGC is wrong, but because Trump lacked the will and courage to stay the course! 🇺🇸🇮🇷

This is actually bad for our country and society. We want and need immigrants.

Europe’s industries - including Britain’s - are being savaged by too cheap Chinese imports. The EU is stirring, not least to resist the rise of populism. We must join them. No boats to China: empty ships tell the story of the EU’s failed industries observer.co.uk/news/politics…

At the request of Pakistan, I had a very good call with Usama Bin Laden.
He agreed that hijacking planes and flying them into towers will stop.

And yet they still can’t open the Strait of Hormuz. Maybe there are things that matter in war more than abs?

Yeah I remember Trump changing on Kurds really quickly.
Not good at all. Trump projects strength but in reality is weak.

One of the regime's chief demands has been "reparations" for the war to rebuild.
If we do this, there will be nothing left of American stature in the world. It'll be the most embarrassing defeat in modern history.
But so many of these reports haven't happened, so we'll see.
BREAKING: The proposed US-Iran peace deal includes a $300 billion reconstruction fund for Iran, per NYT.
The program is being called an international "investment fund," which the US would facilitate in the final deal.
This comes as Iran demands "reparations" to end the war.

If the US Navy could open the Strait of Hormuz the US would be easily winning this war. We could still blockade Iran so their economy would be strangled just like Cuba’s is and we could ensure normal oil flow for the rest of the world.
But the U.S. navy apparently can’t militarily open the Strait so we are losing the war.
Why is the navy failing at this basic task.

Completely right. Sadly. Unless we topple the regime we lose.

If this ends here, the United States lost.
Every core military objective: missed.
The uranium remains.
The missiles remain.
The proxies remain.
The regional influence remains.
And Tehran walks away with something it didn’t have before this started:
The Strait of Hormuz.
A weapon it can fire without launching a thing. 20% of the world’s oil. One chokepoint. One regime’s hand on the valve.
They can spike global prices whenever they choose. Hold the world economy hostage on a whim.
That isn’t peace through strength. That’s strength handed to them, and we called it peace.

The world’s largest military budget has produced an industrial base that cannot sustain a serious war.
How is that possible? Because the system is not designed to produce military capability. It is designed to produce contracts. The five largest defense contractors employ roughly a thousand lobbyists in Washington. They distribute their suppliers across forty-five states deliberately, so no senator can ever vote to cancel a program without firing his own constituents.
And here we are. The current leadership will keep fiddling on this as they see our apathy as permission.

The only way to deal with the Iranian regime’s closure of the Strait of Hormuz is to force the Strait open. Military force in the Strait is the only way to re-establish deterrence. The regime does not get to turn international waters on and off like a light switch.
